Sebastian’s world is dark, dangerous, and no place for a woman like Gianna DiMarco…

She knows it from the moment she wakes in his bed, bruised, battered, and surrounded by secrets she doesn’t understand. Every instinct should be telling her to run.

Instead, Gianna wants to stay.

There’s something about Sebastian she can’t walk away from: the danger beneath his controlled exterior, the fierce way he protects what’s his, and an attraction that only grows stronger the closer she gets to the man beneath the darkness.

Sebastian knows better than to let her into his world.

When danger arrives at his door, sending Gianna away should be the easiest decision he’s ever made. But letting her go means leaving her vulnerable to enemies who have already discovered exactly how much she means to him.

So Sebastian does the only thing he can.

He keeps her close.

As their attraction deepens into something neither of them expected, Sebastian’s enemies become more determined to destroy him. And this time, they know exactly where to strike.

Because there’s only one thing Sebastian fears more than losing Gianna...being the reason she doesn’t survive.
